Does Villa Serena VI accept Medicaid?
Villa Serena VI isn't on AHCA's Medicaid waiver list. It does tell the state it accepts Medicaid as a form of payment, which can mean another Medicaid service such as Assistive Care Services. Ask which Medicaid program it bills before you count on it.
It also has Optional State Supplement beds. OSS is a Florida cash payment that helps residents with a low income pay an ALF's rent.
See ALFs that accept Medicaid in Miami and every Florida ALF on the waiver list, or read how the Medicaid waiver for assisted living works.
